member role so that segmentation of work

Team roles
A team is defined as group of people coming
together for achieving common desired goals.
(Romero, 2019). In a team, there each individual
play different role depending upon their skills &
responsibilities. According to Belbin, there are
various types of team roles which are further
discussed below-

Action oriented role-shaper- This specifies, those people play
this role who are enthusiastic and dynamic in nature. Such type
of people are always ready to face challenges with positive
mind. Shapers are also considered top be known as extrovert
who fearlessly talk to everyone.
Action oriented -implementer- Individual who are actually
responsible for turning ideas into real practice & course of
action comes under this category. They are well organized,
rigid. Also, they always are ready (Driskell, 2017).

Action oriented- completer- These kind of members in team are to
called as perfectionists as because they pre-pared themselves for
occurring situations or unexpected events. They are not dependent on
anyone and like to finish their work on given deadline. Finishers also
have a problem with delegation; they would rather be overwhelmed
than share their work with others.
People oriented- Coordinator- They are the role player of team who
are responsible for managing and handling team effectively.
Moreover, also help team members and guides them about their work
when and how to do it. With their helping nature, it become easier for
them to understand their colleagues. Coordinators are good at
delegating duties, but they may be manipulative depending upon the
situations.

Team worker- These are one who cares about team & assures that
team remains together and united as for longer period of time or till
completion of project. They maintain a supportive relationship with
every member and allows everyone to take participate decision-
making equally (Oke, 2016) .

negotiation skills, at workplace and in market. They act a s secret
agent in organisation who acquire the necessary credentials by any
how. Furthermore, with help of their external networks most of team
work resources are managed and tasks are managed. They are quick
thinkers and good at getting information from other people.
Monitor-evaluators lacks the energy to motivate other team
members & are deemed to be slow in decision making.

Evaluator- Such type of people are calm and look into things as well
as other situations with proper considerations. Also, they make
decisions only when they are sure about the factors. They do not want
any problems or issues in their work.
Specialists- These are one who have specialized in some specific field
or area. They are expert in that field and are limited to there
specialization only. Moreover, they show little interest in other people
expertise. They get deeper in their field & get more experienced

Plants- Then comes the plants, who are being
known for their innovative approach. They are
introvert & are prefer to work alone rather than
with others in team. Externally they get appraisal
from everyone but get negative feedback from
individual because of their behavior. (Romero,
2019).
